(8/12/08)

(The Isthmus, 5/16/08)
"While I don't know Blake's music, he sounds like a punk to me - an immature smartass." -An angry citizen, mother and teacher

"Somber, weary, honky-tonk folk-rock that should suit lonely drinkers as well as anyone itchin' for an old-timey bar brawl." -The Onion
"A near-flawless balance of excellent musicianship, his gorgeous, occasionally shiver-inducing voice and smart songwriting." -Rick's Cafe
"Each tune is carefully crafted, focusing on the intricacies of intertwining instruments as well as the poetics of the lyrics... Perhaps most distinctive of those pieces is the voice of Blake Thomas. Like Robert Plant or Eddie Vedder, Thomas creates a sound I fall victim to every time. It takes only one note to recognize the voice and realize I need to hear more." -The Badger Herald
"Better than the Packers." -Rebecca Kraft
